Kate has been programming since her family got a Commodore 64 computer when she was young. Her teaching career began shortly after when she taught her brothers the basics of programming. Kate has worked in the computer industry for decades. She''s worked for Qualcomm, Amazon, AOL and Verizon, but she prefers the environment in smaller companies. As she gained experience, she realized there were things her coworkers didn''t understand, and she wished they did. That is when she started writing. Her books start basic, but also include advanced concepts. Kate hopes you enjoy her book!
